Motorcycle Bulletin Weekly News Roundup: Top Bike Stories This Week | October 11th, 2026
This Week’s Motorcycle Bulletin Roundup – week-ending 11th October 2026 brings the latest issue news, events and motorcycle industry stories.
This week’s Motorcycle Bulletin is a busier edition because we didn’t publish last weekend, so we have a packed selection of motorcycle news, launches and events. We begin with our latest Modern Classic Motorcycle video features, before looking at Norton’s racing heritage at the 2026 Goodwood Revival, Alpinestars’ 2027 Racing Sport and ALL TERRA collections, Acerbis’ X-FLEX 2.0 range, the evolving LS2 Spectrum Intercom and Nolan’s X-804 ST Beyond The Track helmet.
There is plenty of new model news, including 2027 updates for the Kawasaki Ninja 650, Suzuki’s red Retro 8TT, BMW’s new F 450 R, Triumph’s first look at four new models, and the new Bonneville T40 and T40 Black. We also cover Honda’s updated Gold Wing Tour, Gold Wing, CMX500 Rebel and CMX1100 Rebel family, alongside new finishes for Honda’s custom and touring favourites.
Ducati features prominently with the Multistrada V4 S Grand Tour and the Desmo450 MX and 450 MX Factory, while Zero marks its 20th anniversary with a limited-edition model and major 2027 price reductions. KTM, Husqvarna and GASGAS reveal new electric motocross machines, including the SX-E 2.12, EE 2.12 and MC-E 2.12, while KTM announces PowerDeals and Husqvarna launches fresh retail promotions. We also look at BMW Motorrad’s finance offers, the HEX ezCAN for the F 450 GS, R&G’s adventure bars and Ducati’s new riding gear.
Finally, we visit Ace Cafe London’s Brit ’V’s & Classic Bike Day, the October Ardingly show and Phoenix Motorcycle Training’s Southwest expansion. There is also news from Suzuki, Zerofit and Charley Boorman at MCL26, Oxford’s Plug-It XL emergency tyre repair kit, Ruroc’s Halloween helmet, Indian’s EICMA plans and Triumph’s Scrambler 1200 XE appearance in Matchbox The Movie.
